Casting the DC Universe

[Mr. Earle]

Second: I wouldn't mind her, but if I had to choose someone for Vixen I'd go with Zoe Saldana. I've wanted her for the role after how hot she was in Star Trek.

YES!!!

zoe saldana is sooo skinney. it was sad watchin her in that seen in star trek undressing and rachel nichols a white girl havin way more body than she does. she doesnt even look all that good with long hair and a doubt she would look good with it cut short like vixen usally wears it.

Nobody messes with the Nichols! t:

Fassbender would have rocked as Hal Jordan, Oliver Queen, Aquaman and a number of other roles..


However, with Ryan Reynolds cast as Hal Jordan.. Bradley Cooper would be a logical fit for Oliver; those two would have great chemistry and comedic timing together.

Hard travelling heroes.

I'm hoping they introduce Oliver in the GL franchaise, since WB doesn't seem to have faith in Green Arrow as a standalone film right now.

I believe that "Green Arrow: Year One" could be adapted on the big screen. But i would change the origin so that it doesnt all take place in the jungle. I would continue the action somewhere in the civilized world.
But if they think that Ollie cant support his own franchise, then they should at least give him, Canary and Zatanna some cameos in other movies.

To be honest i wouldnt want every superhero to get a movie franchise because the general audience would get bored of superheroes. Superman, Batman, Flash, GL and perhaps JL are fine for DC.

Cooper is my second choice. He has that "Ollie" look to him, not to mention I could see him sporting the goatee.

And I'm all for an Oliver Queen cameo in GL.

I think pretty much all of us here agree Fassbender would rock in a number of DC roles.

Yep!

oh totally i could see him like folks have said as ollie or arthur/orin(aquaman)

Yeah, IMO he'd be great for both roles.

THIS. Now that I think about it, if they actually did go with that origin adapted on screen, it'd be a bit like BB. In which we see Ollie in another part of the world (but in this case he's stranded) and he learns his bow and arrow skills and returns to Star City. Similar to how Bruce learned his ways. But I agree they should change the origin to an extent. Also agree on other heroes making cameos if they don't get their own films.

well hopefully wb will be able to get him to get one of these roles if those characters ever make it off developmental stages within the next few yrs.

I'll probably get yelled at for suggesting this but... Topher Grace as the Flash/Wally West?

[runs for cover]

 

[Young Superman]

Who would you cast as Superboy/Kon-El/Conner Kent?

 

[cin0]

matt long

[runs for cover]

he would have to bulk up a whole lot. topher grace looks anorexic. he calls himself mick jagger skinny alot and he's like a twig. kinda hard to get passed seein him as wimpy cowardly eric on that 70's show, and im still kinda mad at him for causing the shows end but i think he could do acting wise but he just doesnt have the look for aside from his naturally redish hair that he's dyed several times.

 

[Webhead2006]

i like topher but who knows if he will do another superhero movie.

 

[CanaryFan]

I like Topher too, in sitcoms! That 70's geek has no business playing super hero or villain!

 

[NEXUS 6]

Who would you cast as Superboy/Kon-El/Conner Kent?

I've only seen him act once, and was not overly impressed, but looks-wise I'd go with Sean Faris.

 

[Young Superman]

great pick

 

[Young Superman]

A couple years ago I would have said Tom Welling for Superboy, but he's too old now.

Not even just doing the voice of the Flash/Wally West (or some other character) for an animated series or direct to DVD animated feature?

I just thought he might make a passable Wally since he has decent comic timing, and Wally was usually the quipping Flash. Getting into shape for the Flash would probably be easier than for someone like Batman or Venom, since the Flash tends to look thinner/leaner than other superheroes/villains.

 

[cerealkiller182]

Jeffery Donovan as Question
Michael Palin as Tot

 

[Webhead2006]

tot?

 

[lets_get_ripped]

I think cerealkiller182 means this guy:

[Webhead2006]

oh ok i dont think i ever heard of this character.

 

[Lobo]

I've not seen anything he's in, but Kellan Lutz has a good hero look imo. Can he act at all?

 

[MadVillainy]

i like topher but who knows if he will do another superhero movie.

We can say that about any actor thats suggested. All this stuff we do is speculation.

That being said, I dont think Grace would be a good match for Wally at all. Dustin Milligan, Adam Brody, and especially Scott Porter are better choices.

I've not seen anything he's in, but Kellan Lutz has a good hero look imo. Can he act at all?

Ive only seen him in the 2 Twilight films and for the bit that hes in him hes not bad. I cant really see him as any hero though. He kind of reminded me of Captain MArvel at certain times, but not very much

 

[Webhead2006]

yea he only done the twilight movies right. though i dont know his work or anything so i have nothing to say about him. though i did read he was a potential for the new conan film before that SGA actor nabbed the role.

 

[cin0]

he was in prom night, accepted, and stick it

 

[Majik1387]

He was funny in Accepted and Stick It

 

[MadVillainy]

who was he in Accepted

 

[Steve Holt]

who was he in Accepted

one of the skater guys

 

[lets_get_ripped]

Ok folks ... who would you cast for Eddie Bloomberg/Kid Devil?

It's hard because of his long, blond hair and his "young" age.
